Patty Larkin - Danny lyrics

Danny by Patty Larkin Danny flew his stars and stripes Had a wife and a baby Bounced him on his knee each night Till he took off with the navy Jesus was a sailor, boys Sailed on Galilee If he went to work today He'd have to sail the seven seas Danny took his fishing boat A hundred miles away To the waters no one owns To the land of wind and wave All along the seacoast towns Along the narrowland They heard a storm was coming down Two parts water one part sand The wind it drove the sea so wild It opened like a jaw Came down in a salty smile And it ate up all it saw Fifteen feet the ocean rose Fifteen feet it fell When that boat began to fall Must have seemed like hell Danny flew his stars and stripes Had a wife and a baby Saw them in the sea that night When he went down with the navy
